With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to FIGS. 1 through 4 thereof, a new bed sheet attachment system embodying the principles and concepts of the present invention and generally designated by the reference numeral 10 will be described.
As best illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 4, the bed sheet attachment system 10 generally comprises a plurality of sheet members including a bottom sheet member 12, a top sheet member 14, and a first middle sheet member 16. Each sheet member 12,14,16 has upper and lower surfaces 24,25, opposite head and foot ends 20,21 and a pair of sides 22,23 extending between the head and foot ends 20,21. The bottom sheet member 12 is adapted for covering a mattress while the lower surface of the top sheet member 14 is designed for resting on the upper surface of another sheet member. The first middle sheet member 16 is designed for interposing between the top sheet member 14 and the bottom sheet member 12. The upper surface of the bottom sheet member 12 is attachable by zippers to the lower surface of another sheet member. The lower surface of the top sheet member 14 is attachable to the upper surface of another sheet member by zippers. The upper surface of the first middle sheet member 16 is attachable by zippers to the lower surface of another sheet member and the lower surface of the first middle sheet member 16 is attachable by zippers to the upper surface of another sheet member.
In closer detail, as best illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3, each sheet member 12,14,16,18 has upper and lower surfaces 24,25, opposite head and foot ends 20,21 and a pair of sides 22,23 extending between the head and foot ends 20,21. The sheet members include a bottom sheet member 12, a top sheet member 14, a first middle sheet member 16, and preferably a second middle sheet member 18. As illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 4, the bottom sheet member 12 is adapted for covering a mattress and is preferably a fitted sheet. The top sheet member 14 and the first and second middle sheet members 16,18 are preferably generally rectangular as shown in FIG. 3. The lower surface 24 of the top sheet member 14 is designed for resting on the upper surface of another sheet member and is preferably a comforter, a quilt or a bed spread. The first and second middle sheet members 16,18 are designed for interposing between the top sheet member 14 and the bottom sheet member 12. The first middle sheet member 16 is preferably a bed sheet while the second middle sheet member 18 is preferably a blanket.
The system 10 attaches adjacent sheet members by using a number of complementary elongate first and second zipper portions 28,29. Each first zipper portion 28 is detachably attachable to an associated second zipper portion 29. Alternately, other fasteners such as lengths of hook and loop fasteners may be used instead of zippers. The upper surfaces 24 of the bottom, first middle, and second middle sheet members 12,16,18 each have a set of first zipper portions provided thereon. FIG. 3 illustrates the preferred location of zipper portions on a sheet member. One first zipper portion 30 of each set of first zipper portions is located adjacent the foot end 21 of its associated sheet member. Another first zipper portion 31 of the set of first zipper portions is located adjacent one of the sides 22 of the associated sheet member, while a third first zipper portion 32 of the set of first zipper portions is located adjacent the other of the sides 23 of the associated sheet member. In the preferred embodiment, the length of the one first zipper portion 30 extends substantially parallel with the foot end 21 of its associated sheet member while the lengths of the another and third first zipper portions 31,32 extend substantially parallel with their respective sides of the associated sheet member.
In a similar arrangement as the upper surfaces, the lower surfaces of the top, first middle, and second middle sheet members 14,16,18 each have a set of second zipper portions 29 provided thereon. The second zipper portions are arranged so that they are attachable to associated first zipper portions of another sheet with one second zipper portion located adjacent the foot end 21, another second zipper portion located adjacent one of the sides of the associated sheet member, and a third second zipper portion located adjacent the other of the sides of the associated sheet member. Like the first zipper portions, preferably, the length of the second zipper portion are substantially parallel with their associated end or side. FIG. 2, illustrates the attachment of zipper portions to one another with the first zipper portions of one of the sheet members detachably attachable to the associated second zipper portions of the lower surface of an adjacent sheet member. Ideally, as illustrated in FIG. 1, the zipper portions 34 of the bottom sheet member 12 do not extend all the way to the head end 20 of the bottom sheet member 12 unlike the zipper portion 35 of the other sheet members so that head ends 20 of the other sheet members 14,16,18 are spaced apart from the head end 20 of the bottom sheet member 12.
In use, the bottom sheet member 12 is first mounted to a mattress to cover the mattress with the upper surface 24 of the bottom sheet member facing outwards. The first middle sheet member 16 is then rested on the bottom sheet member 12 with the lower surface 25 of the first middle sheet member facing the upper surface 24 of the bottom sheet member 12 and with the second zipper portions 29 of the first middle sheet member aligned with the first zipper portions 28 of the bottom sheet member 12. The first middle sheet member 16 is then attached to the bottom sheet member 12 by the fastening of the first zipper portions to their associated second zipper portion. The second middle sheet member 18 is placed over the first middle sheet member attached to the first middle sheet member 16 in a similar fashion with the corresponding zipper portions. Alternately, the order of the first and second middle sheet members may be reversed and a user may add additional first and second middle sheet members as needed. The lower surface of top sheet member is then attached to the upper surface of the top most middle sheet member with their respective zipper portions.
As to a further discussion of the manner of usage and operation of the present invention, the same should be apparent from the above description. Accordingly, no further discussion relating to the manner of usage and operation will be provided.
With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of the invention, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by the present invention.
Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention.
